3 tickets to Yeshwanthpur, the total cost is rs.46; but if we buy 3 tickets to Malleswaram
and 5 tickets to Yeshwanthpur the total cost is rs.74. Find the fares from the bus stand
to Malleswaram, and to Yeshwanthpur.​

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

let the fare to malleswaram be x

let the fare to yeshwanthpur be y

acc to question

2x+3y=46 eqn(1)

3x+5y=74 eqn(2)

multiplying eqn 1 by 3 and eqn2 by 2 & then subtracting

we get ,−y=−10

y=10

putting it in eqn (1) , we get

2x+30=46

2x=46−30=16

x=8

fare to malleswaram is 8 rs

fare to yeshwanthpur is 10rs
